I wrote 44,159 words in total. That's an average of 1,472 words per article.

Writing a 1,472 word article every day for 30 days was a challenge. Thankfully I love challenges and I excel when “forced” to do something.

There were times when my motivation was down but there were far more times when my motivation was very high.

I am proud of being able to do something I never thought I would be able to do (let go of perfection and just publish, publish, publish).

I cannot lie and say all 30 articles are masterpieces, as they are actually rough drafts, but I can say for certain a good percentage of the articles will make me good money and bring me great traffic 3+ years from now.

Writing 30 articles in a month is all about planting seeds for the future. I didn't do it to receive traffic today, I did it to get traffic several years from now.

The articles that bring me the most traffic today are articles that were written over 6 years ago.

Articles are seeds, you write them, forget them, and in the future they bare fruit for you.

The very simple reason I wrote 30 articles in 30 days is to receive traffic 3+ years from now.

Hey Victor man, your 30 days of blogging was badass. I liked it a lot.

I am certain that I actually have the skill set to make it as a writer-businessman. I just needed a little push. Your work did it for me. Thanks!

Three brief questions:

1. Do you think Latin America is a ready place to make money from blogging and selling info products?

2. Do you think it is a must for a domain name to be instantly descriptive of the website’s content?

3. Businesswise speaking…do you think I should tone down my writing so I won’t alienate guys that are not ready or looking to be hardcore? I mean, words like “aggression”, “discipline”, “no bullshitting around”, etc….I guess such words are not for everyone.

Thank you, sir.

PS: I’m getting myself a copy of your New World Ronin for Christmas (looking for ways to improve my learning curve).

IMO one of the best articles ever is your piece on how to be attractive to women. Extremely simple and concise in wording, captures every concept that RP teaching in the sphere could ever teach you. Again ahead of your time. You were an insightful mofo.

There’s an example of an article that was a) written quickly and b) still hasn’t been found by B&D readers. Released in Jan 2012 it only has 93 comments. I have seen that article plagiarized by people around the web to hundreds of thousands of hits. The information is out there, the source is unknown.

Greatness!!!
This reminds me of the greatest and most prolific rapper, Tupac. All the people that worked with him said he was a fucking workhorse. He would go to the studio get a piece of paper and just write song after song. Then he would go into the booth and rap it. Then come out and write more songs. Then go back in and rap. He still has unreleased material to this day.
Victor make sure you release all your stuff, man:)

The article should have labeled “How to do anything everyday”. You want to write everyday, just write every day. You want to work out, go to gym, build your business, spend more time with the family, play with the kids, read, study, whatever you want , you just do it. Don’t think about it. Unless you are in ill health, you can do it. I believe what Mr. Pride showed us these 30 days and with this post is how to do the work that needs to be done. Without overthinking, whining and talking about it. It’s like you wake up in the morning and you have a mission to accomplish. Another important thing i noticed is that he didn’t care about the result and didn’t think about it and that played a role in his productivity. He just wrote what it was in his mind. That was the goal. It was to do the work. Keep up giving us excellent work Mr. Pride.

Setting up an account with badnet. In the bonus add-ons (domain privacy, search engine jumpstart, sitelock security find and comodo positive ssl bundle) which would you say are required, recommended or unnecessary during the startup phase? (i.e the first year or so as you accrue readers). Money is tight right now, would love input from a pro before i get this train rolling.

Domain privacy is definitely recommended. If you do a whois lookup on any domain you can see the domain owner’s information. In the case of an individual this would be your own personal information. So if you have a personal email address or physical address you can expect spam bots to scrape that data and start sending you junk. I’d definitely recommend using domain privacy which acts as a proxy and hides your personal info.

The other stuff you can ignore but there is a push to move sites to https (SSL) so that should be on your priority list but you can pick up a Comodo Positive SSL certificate from somewhere like Namecheap for $9 a year.

Awesome challenge! I enjoyed the challenge as well, it’s nice to see you active and posting on a daily basis. I really what you said about these articles being seeds for the future, super interesting way to look at it. Thanks so much.

Your image on this article deserves on front cover Vogue Magazine. I even kept it my desktop wallpaper. You look stud. Great inspiration from you to 17 year old man. One thing i wanna ask. How to got those killer ripped forearms ??

Today is my birthday. I turned 18. I took gym membership. Trainer adviced me not to focus on legs and told to start with push ups (20) for chest and bicep curls (5). Sure I will do hammer curls. I have seen closely you look more bold with Zeus looking deltoids. How you made it ?

Wow, thanks for your insights on this. I had a fairly successful website in a different niche years ago. Last December, I started a new blog about lifestyle design. I’ve been somewhat frustrated by how hard it has been to gain traction and traffic. This article helped me remember just how much time and effort to took to make that first project successful. Thanks for helping me keep my focus on the long term.
